More quotes by Michelle Obama
We as parents are our children's first and best role models, and this is particularly true when it comes to their health. ...We can't lie around on the couch eating French fries and candy bars and expect our kids to eat carrots and run around the block.
Michelle Obama
Ultimately this issue is on us. We're the ones who make the decisions about what our kids eat.
Michelle Obama
There are so many really good role models out there, we just have to make sure that we don't glorify just one type. We have the first Latina Supreme Court Justice, Sonia Sotomayor, who is ready to be a force in kids' lives. I could name hundreds of people like her.
Michelle Obama
I think that mentoring is such a critical part of the role I can play in my position. I see how little bits of exposure and big bits of exposure really change my girls significantly, and I want that for more girls around the country and the world.
Michelle Obama
Cute's good. But cute only lasts for so long, and then it's, 'Who are you as a person?' Don't look at the bankbook or the title. Look at the heart. Look at the soul. When you're dating a man, you should always feel good. ... You shouldn't be in a relationship with somebody who doesn't make you completely happy and make you feel whole.
Michelle Obama
Wounded Warriors tell me they're not just going to walk again, they're going to run, and they're going to run marathons!
Michelle Obama
It should be fun introducing kids to fruits and vegetables. If you start young, it will be something that they'll attach to really quickly.
Michelle Obama
Every day, the people I meet inspire me... every day, they make me proud... every day they remind me how blessed we are to live in the greatest nation on earth.
Michelle Obama
Policies that support families aren't political issues. They're personal. They're the causes I carry with me every single day.
Michelle Obama
Communities and countries and ultimately the world are only as strong as the health of their women.
Michelle Obama
An educational foundation is only part of the equation. In order for creativity to flourish and imagination to take hold, we also need to expose our children to the arts from a very young age.
Michelle Obama
Hope and change are hard-fought things.
Michelle Obama
Being a healthy woman isn't about getting on a scale or measuring your waistline. We need to start focusing on what matters-on how we feel, and how we feel about ourselves.
Michelle Obama
Over the years I've become more confident in people's ability to recognize a good thing.
Michelle Obama
Oh, I can't play soccer, and I'm not a great swimmer. I won't drown, but you won't see me doing laps in a pool.
Michelle Obama
You look at all the sporting companies out there. I won't name names, but we know who they are. Good brands and logos and things like that, and they have to start catering to real women. Even in how their sports apparel is designed, and the commercials - you want to look at a commercial and see yourself.
Michelle Obama
My happiness isn't connected to my husband's or my boss's or my children's behavior. You have control over your own actions, your own well-being.
Michelle Obama
You see, at the end of the day, my most important title is still 'mom-in-chief.' My daughters are still the heart of my heart and the center of my world.
Michelle Obama
Be passionate about something and lean to that strength.
Michelle Obama
When I'm unhappy with something, people know, because I don't want to hold on to it. I'd rather deal immediately with the stuff that bothers me, so using my network - my girlfriends, my husband, my mom - I talk a lot, I vent.
Michelle Obama
